O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: St. Donatus Church was built in the 9th century using stone from the Roman forum right next to it. Its circular shape with three apses and massive tower make it one of the best-preserved examples of pre-Romanesque architecture in all of Europe.
Istaknuto: When you stand inside the church and look up, you notice the incredible acoustics. Since the 1960s, the church has hosted the world-famous "Musical Evenings in St. Donatus," where brass music fills the room in a way that makes the hairs on your arms stand up.
Insajderski saveti
- Come here during the annual summer concerts in July and August for an unforgettable musical experience in the ancient space.
- Make the climb up to the bell tower for panoramic views of Zadar and the coast; it is worth the narrow stairs.
- Visit early in the morning to avoid the cruise ship crowds and have the peace all to yourself.
- Bring your camera and lie down on the floor in the middle of the church to get the perfect symmetrical shot up toward the ceiling.

Da li ste čuli za besplatne šetnje?
Nakon putovanja u preko 30 zemalja, postoji jedna stvar koju bih voleo da mi je neko rekao od prvog dana, a koja je potpuno promenila način na koji doživljavam nove gradove.
Besplatne šetnje. Da, zaista besplatne. Nije potrebna kreditna kartica. Nema skrivenih uslova.
Lokalni vodič, 2-3 sata
Glavne znamenitosti, skriveni dragulji, lokalne priče

Radio sam ove ture u desetinama gradova i bile su vrhunac skoro svakog putovanja. Ako posećujete Zadar, Croatia, uradite to prvog dana. Zahvalićete mi kasnije.
